Sounds like a noble endeavor. From https://suckless.org/project_ideas Suckless font rendering library There is libdrw in suckless now, which still uses xft and fontconfig. Fontconfig and xft are ugly and require too much internal knowledge to be useful. The next logical layer in Linux evolved as pango and cairo. Both of course added HTML formatting and vector drawing. This is not needed to simply draw some text somewhere. And this is what a suckless font rendering library should do: Give it a font string and render at some position the given font without having to care about font specifics. |
